Why is a water bath necessary?
Water baths are so important for certain dishes. For this recipe, in particular, cooking the ramekins in a water bath allows the dish to cook evenly to ensure that no parts end up over or undercooked.
In short, using a water bath for this recipe will ensure that your blueberry crumble comes out PERFECT!
Nut-Free Healthy Blueberry Crumble
As with all Real Balanced recipes, this delicious blueberry crumble contains absolutely ZERO peanuts or tree nuts!

Storing Your Easy Blueberry Crumble
Like with most of the recipes I create, you can feel free to store this dish in either the fridge or the freezer. I find that foods suitable for storage help to make my life easier. There’s always something for me to grab in the fridge when I’m short on time!
If you want to store your breakfast crumbles in the fridge to enjoy throughout the week, be sure to keep the ramekins in a large airtight container or tightly wrap them with foil. Consume within 3 days.
Reheat your breakfast crumbles in the oven atop a baking sheet at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes or in the microwave for 30-45 seconds.
Recommended Kitchen Materials and Tools
- Mixing Bowls: Have a couple on hand before beginning.
- Electric Mixer: Using an electric mixer will ensure that the ingredients are mixed properly. Plus, it saves time and LOTS of energy!
- Ramekins: Individual ramekins are used for each serving of this yummy blueberry crumble. You will need 8.
- Baking Pan: You will need a large baking pan for the water bath portion of this recipe. The water bath will be 1″ high, so be sure that your baking pan is deeper than that.
Ingredient Swaps and Substitutions
Classic Monk Fruit Sweetener
If you only have Golden Monk Fruit Sweetener on hand, no need to fret. You can use the Golden in place of the Classic, and your recipe will still turn out perfectly! Simply make the swap at a 1:1 ratio.
Additionally, erythritol, Swerve, and Truvia can be used in place of the monk fruit sweetener at a 1:1 ratio. If you would like to use stevia, be sure to check the brand’s website for measurement conversions (stevia is not a 1:1 substitution for monk fruit sweetener).
Melted Coconut Oil
I personally prefer refined coconut oil, as it has less coconut flavor than unrefined coconut oil, but either will work perfectly here.
Another option for swapping coconut oil is to use butter. Use a 1:1 ratio, but please note that the consistency may be slightly altered.
Blueberries
Though this recipe is centered around blueberries, I know that some people prefer other types of berries! If you’ve been reading through this recipe thinking “wow, this would taste GREAT with some raspberries,” then I’m talking to you. Feel free to swap the fruit as you see fit. Substitute at a 1:1 ratio, but note that the carb content will change.

Tonia says
I’m new to keto and this recipe is an immediate favorite! I was wondering if you would add the recipe & macros to the Carb Manager app so it’s easier to track because I know I’ll be making this often!
Sara Nelson says
So glad you enjoyed, Tonia! All of the nutrition info is available directly below the recipe instructions within the recipe card. I’m not sure if Carb Manager allows you to import recipes from sites, but, if not, you can likely just manually type in the caloric and macro info into your app.
Dee Gee says
My non-LC hubby loved it. Will do this one several more times this season. Thanks!

Sara Nelson says
So happy to hear you enjoyed! Thank you!
Buzz says
Mine came out rather crumbly, not sure if that is how it’s supposed be. I added yoghurt to make it more edible. Did I do something wrong?
Sara Nelson says
It’s a crumble, so, yes, it should be crumbly.
Matt Kelly says
What are the net carbs on this recipie? This may be just the thing I’m looking for!
Sara Nelson says
4.5g net carbs per serving. Net carbs for my recipes are always listed at the top of the recipe directly next to the recipe title. Alternatively, you can calculate net carbs by reading the nutrition label in the recipe card and subtracting fiber from total carbs.
Cecelia M says
I can’t use coconut flour…how much almond flour would I need?
Sara Nelson says
Sorry, I’m not sure, I haven’t tested this recipe with almond flour (and cannot test, as I have an allergy to almonds).
Amy J Cardinal says
I don’t have that many ramekins. Is it possible to make this in an 8×8 pan or something like that or will it no cook right in the middle?
Sara Nelson says
I think that would work! I just can’t say for sure how long it would take to bake.
